Standard Machine Learning approaches to text classification use the bag-of-words representation of documents to deceive the classification target function. Typical linguistic stru...
We present an extension to a recent method for learning of nonlinear manifolds, which allows to incorporate general cost functions. We focus on the -insensitive loss and visually d...
Latent Variable Models (LVM), like the Shared-GPLVM
and the Spectral Latent Variable Model, help mitigate over-
fitting when learning discriminative methods from small or
modera...
We present a framework to extract the most important features (tree fragments) from a Tree Kernel (TK) space according to their importance in the target kernelbased machine, e.g. ...
A key challenge in applying kernel-based methods for discriminative learning is to identify a suitable kernel given a problem domain. Many methods instead transform the input data...
